UALR series opener pushed back

Forecasted storms in Monroe, La. have pushed the opening game of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock’s baseball series at Louisiana-Monroe from Friday to Saturday, the program announced Thursday.

The three-game conference set will now begin at 2 p.m. Saturday, followed by a 1 p.m. start Sunday before Monday’s series finale, also scheduled for 1 p.m. UALR’s 6:30 p.m. Tuesday visit to No. 6 Ole Miss is unchanged.

The Trojans (15-14, 6-3 Sun Belt) travel to Monroe this weekend following a midweek loss to the University of Central Arkansas and sit in second place in the Sun Belt West Division.
